How African Family Histories are Being Collected

Synopsis

There are over 1050 people involved in the collection of family history information in villages in Africa where family history has previously only been handed down orally. Family Gathering's Grant Nielsen talks with Family Search's Oral History Program Manager Brent Hansen and Oral History Project Coordinator Pamela Hirwa talks about the process of collecting these family histories from African villages, and what is done with the information that has been collected from such a massive project. KSL NewsRadio's Family Gathering connects people and families across many generations.
